Surprises with First NEW TT

This is my 3rd Trailer, but the first NEW trailer.

I was surprised that it didn't come with a Clean Water hose. They told me that I wouldn't get my septic hose, but I got a $50 gift card to purchase the one I wanted from their store...so no big deal. But to find out after getting home and doing another walk through that it didn't come with a clean water hose was a surprise.

Also found it interesting that I bought a 50amp trailer but they gave me a 30amp to 15amp adapter. I called them and asked if I could get the 50amp to 30amp adapter that actually fits my trailer and was told "oh, you have to buy that separate". I guess I wouldn't assume a $30k investment would come with an adapter that doesn't even work without me buying something else to make it work. I am really nervous that I got the incorrect spare tire as well and that I need to buy the correct tire. (being sarcastic)..

Is that just me or did anyone else experience this? It's my fault that I didn't ask better questions in my walk through... just thought it was strange that they didn't tell me about the other items and must have mentioned about 5 times from the RV show to the Walk Through how I needed to purchase my Septic hose separate.

    I just purchased a new TT also and I did receive a "starter kit" from the dealer. The starter kit came with a very short fresh water hose, cheapie water pressure regulator, short sewer hose, a roll of toilet paper, and a bag of black tank deodorizer. In other words, you didn't miss much.

    The new water hose is so short that I'm using my old one. I'm also using my old sewer hose since it's longer and much better quality.
